My daughter handed me the purple crocus she had found.
"I didn't pick it! It was just lying there on the sidewalk!"
So she carried it to me, because it is a flower and I am her Mom and she knew I had my cameras with me, beside where I was sitting on the blanket on the front lawn.
My husband says that crocuses are this furry because it really does help to keep them warm because they bloom so early in our cold climate.
Now that is adaptation.
A flower that grows its own parka.

When I ask to photograph someone, it is because I love the way they look and I think I make that clear. I'm paying them a tremendous compliment. What I'm saying is, I want to take you home with me and look at you for the rest of my life. - Amy Arbus

VERY beautiful, and I don't think our crocuses are furry, but then I am a bit farther south than you ;) Nice shot.
